Summary :Surgical Instrument Washers with automated Ultrasonic Cleaner Solutionare designed to clean all surfaces thoroughly, thereby providing the critical prerequisite for the safe handling, disinfecting, and the sterilizing of surgical instruments. Not all Washer Decontaminators Washer Disinfectors provide adequate pre-rinsing, pre-cleaning, purified water rinsing, and thereby render higher rejection rates of processed surgical instruments. Surgical Instrument Washers with automated Ultrasonic Cleaner Solution Secure Performance The proper sequence of treatment and the correct choice of time, temperature and the components used are necessary to render surgical instruments that are critically clean, safe to handle, and have the prerequisite for sterilization. Washer Decontaminators Washer Disinfectors employ a cold water pre-wash to remove gross debris. This removes proteins and lipids, preventing them from being baked onto devices during the high temperature treatments to follow. Then, the ultrasonic process creates millions of micro implosions to loosen and free debris from lock boxes, hinge pins, serrations and other difficult-to-access surface areas. The high temperature (at ~ 158 to 230 degrees F) dry cycle presents heated, forced air which dries each device. The critical cleaned medical devices are now clean, safe to handle, have the prerequisite for sterilization, and are properly prepared for further reprocessing. Surgical Instrument Washer with automated Ultrasonic Cleaner Solution The Washington University School of Medicine at Washington University Medical Center examined the performance of a properly designed Washer Decontaminator Washer Disinfector (CESCO washer Decontaminator Model 520) and found that it removed all organisms from the surgical instruments tested. The Surgical Instrument Washer with automated Ultrasonic Cleaner Solution was tested for its ability to complete remove pathological organism from surgical instruments. At the end of the drying cycle, the instruments were allowed to cool and then dipped into another tube of Thioglycolate medium. All tubes of the Thioglycoate medium tested before the wash grew the appropriate organism within six to 18 ours after testing. All tubes tested at the end of the wash showed no growth after 14 days of incubation. This Washer Decontaminator Washer Disinfector removed all organisms from the instruments. Surgical Instrument Washer with automated Ultrasonic Cleaner Solution Efficacy of Disinfection 100% Another evaluation of Washer Decontaminators Washer Disinfectors confirmed that the efficacy of disinfection was 100%. Surgical Instrument Washer with automated Ultrasonic Cleaner Solution Critical Cleaners Will Work for You Washer Decontaminator Washer Disinfector Critical cleaners demonstrated the ability to completely remove pathological organisms with effective repeatability. There operation is automatic, reliable, labor saving and easy to use. Central Processing departments rarely find the need to manually treat devices and report an exceptionally low rate of rejected devices. The Proper Sequence of Treatments of cold water pre-wash, Ultrasonic Cleaner Solution, detergent washing, final rinse(s), and hot air drying treatments of a Surgical Instrument Washer with automated Ultrasonic Cleaner Solution using a combination enzymatic enzyme detergent surgical instrument cleaner, will provide the prerequisite for: safe handling, disinfecting, and sterilizing of surgical instruments.

Validation of the microbial safety of surgical instruments and utensils following automated cleaning by a Surgical Instrument Washer (Tunnel Washers with Ultrasonic Cleaners) – Thermal Disinfection. A. Drake, RN and L. Ayers, MD., The Ohio State University Hospitals,
The application of universal precautions to instruments/utensils handling became an issue in the selection of replacement decontamination equipment for Central Sterile supply at our hospital. The new technology of an automated thermal disinfection Washer Decontaminator Washer DisinfectoSurgical Instrument Washers (Tunnel Washers with Ultrasonic Cleaner Solution) r (TW)(CESCO TM, Mercersburg, Pa.) offered increased protection to our reprocessing staff due to decreased handling but raised concerns about the efficacy of thermal disinfection as opposed to traditional washer sterilization. Because of the limited scientific documentation of this new technology, a study was undertaken to establish the microbial safety of finished products and to identify any feature or function failure which could adversely affect outcome. The sequence of treatments for the Surgical Instrument Washers (Tunnel Washers with Ultrasonic Cleaners) progress from flush/rinse, sonic bath, wash, rinse, lubricant/deionized water (DI) sprays to drying at 240° F. for 4 minutes. The Washer Decontaminator Washer Disinfector Surgical Instrument Washers (Tunnel Washers with Ultrasonic Cleaner Solution) was challenged with selected instruments and utensils that are considered to be very difficult to clean. The source of the contamination was determined to be resin gel in the DI tank and not the instrument lubricant. Surgical Instrument Washers (Tunnel Washers with Ultrasonic Cleaner Solution) used in this research study were manufactured by CESCO, Mercersburg PA. Although these Surgical Instrument Washers (Tunnel Washers with automated Ultrasonic Cleaners) are not currently available. The studies demonstrate the propensity for Surgical Instrument Washers with Ultrasonic Cleaner Solution Treatment to deliver optimal cleaning results.
Don't just spray it, we easy FOAM-it for more effective cleaning.
